About the Item

This work is meticulously and brilliantly rendered to capture not only the likeness of the sitter but spirit as well. The image is pushed to the forefront of the composition and set against a rendering of an Aztec mural. If there is any alive today who could paint a portrait the assignment of and Magazine cover deadline as good as Ernest Hamlin Baker, I am not aware of him. Archivally matted to 17.75 x 16.75 inches but not framed.

By Thorton Utz
Located in Fort Washington, PA
Medium: Oil on Board Signature: Signed Lower Left Sight Size 18.50" x 16.75", Framed 24.00" x 22.25" Saturday Evening Post Cover, April 19, 1952 Thornton Utz liked to work out the poses of his figures with rapid, free sketches that clearly expressed the mood or mental attitude of his characters. Once this had been established, he then posed an photographed his models, as nearly as possible, in the predetermined positions. The photos furnished the details of folds and lighting which lent added factuality to his original poses. He used this approach effectively for his humorous Saturday Evening Post covers as well as for the more serious fiction illustrations for Cosmopolitan, McCall’s, The Ladies’ Home Journal, Redbook, and Good Housekeeping. Utz participated in the Society of Illustrators Air Force Art Program and received a citation from General Curtis LeMay for documenting the airlift of Hungarian refugees. Utz also received the Governor Bryant of Florida Award for his freedom posters. He was born in Memphis, Tennessee, and studied under Burton Callicott in Memphis. He also attended the American Academy of Art in Chicago and late taught at the Chicago Art Institute.
